 scaling each of the at least one temporal collocated motion vector based on a first picture order count difference between the target reference picture and a current picture including the current video block and a second picture order count difference between the temporal reference picture and a first picture including the first block; 
 performing a first clipping operation on the at least one scaled temporal collocated motion vector to derive at least one clipped temporal collocated motion vector, wherein the clipping range of each component of the at least one clipped temporal collocated motion vector is [−(1<<(M−1)), (1<<(M−1))−1], M is greater than 16 and << is an arithmetic left shift operation; and
